Sooley is a book, can't put it down novel from state to finish, that elicits all of your emotions and reactions: happiness, joy, excitement, exuberance, madness, sadness, love, hate, anger and yes, it even brings you to tears! As a basketball coach, fan and parent, I encourage young readers aspiring to get better and improve their game to take note of the hard work, commitment and determination Sooley put into his practices and preparation throughout his career! I also encourage all of the readers to pay close attention to how his career was brought to an abrupt end and avoid that fatal path!
